STEAM HEAT TRIED.
THE CENTRAL VERMONT ROAD EX-
PERlMENTS SUCCESSFULLY
with the williams system of Heating Cars
Exhaust steam Conducted by Three
Pipes Through the Train and Back
by Means of "a Vacuum Escape.

ST. ALBANs, March 25.-A trial of car
heating by steam from the engine by
means of the Williams system was made
on the Central Vermont road to day and
proved successful to u large degree Three
cars on the local passenger train leaving
here at o'clock this afternoon were made
comfortable in 10 minutes after the steam
was put on. II G. Chase, representing
the Williams system, who has been here
for some time perfecting the arrangements
for the experiment, was aboard the train
aud expressed himself satisfied with the
trial since it demonstrated that the princi
pie of this system could be successfully
applied to car heating. The exhaust steam
from the Westinghouse brake pump was
conducted through three lines of pipe on
one side of the cars and back along the
other side to the engine by means of a
vacuum escape placed on the engine on
the opposite side from the air brake.
No live steam was used. The expert
, mentor found that some of the mechanism
employed in the trial was not suited to
produce the fullest measure of success,
but as far as proving the principle in
volved is concerned the experiment was
very satisfactory and the passengers did
not complain of a lack of heat, although
the outside temperature was low. Further
developments under improved mechanism
are Anticipated.

Frank Mcbride Pardoned.

MlDDLEBURY, March A.-Frank Nc
Bride of Middlebury, who was sentenced
to serve five years in the States prison at
the June term of the Addison county
court, 1885, for an assault on one Amanda
Lamphear, has been given pardon by
Gov Ormsbee, and he arrived home in
Middlebury Wednesday night A petition
for Nc Bride's pardon was very generally
signed by the people of Middlebury, and
this backed up with evidence from the
scenes of the woman's former capers of
her undoubted and unreleved bad char
acter, induced the governor to extend the
pardon. 1t has all along been believed in
Middlebury that Mcbride would never
been put over to later term of court.

THE INTERSTATE COMMISSION.
What is Thought OF it in Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The general
impression in Washington is that the
greatest strength of the commission will
be in the republicans. In this some politi-
cal wiseacres see very clever move on
the part of the president. Aggressive dem
ocrats might have stamped the commits
sion with their personality, making it
partisan in its character and drawing the
party into taking the responsibility of the
enemies they might make by being too
Just in their decisions. AS IL now stands
it Is believed that the two republicans,
Cooley and Walker, with Schoonmaker,
will shape the course of the commission.
Mr.. Edmunds says of Mr.. Aldace f.
Walker: In the State Senate he won dis
tinction in respect of these railroad prob
lems He was member of the judiciary
committee. He is "a man of extraordinary
ability, fine scholar, a man of literary
attachments and is vigorous, Industrious
and honest all the way through. A strong
man in every respect. did | recommend
him Oh, MOI | don't recommend any
body. | sometimes give testimony of the
fitness of people for public office, but
don't recommend" 1t Is looked upon
here as wise thing to have permitted
Mr.. Edmunds to name the eastern repub-
lican and it is limited even that this may
have some political significance sometime
in the future.

RICHMOND HOTEL FIRE.
Patients Doing well-The Search for the
Charred Remains.

BUFFALO, n. Y, March 25.-The pa
tents at ST. Peters hospital are reported
as doing nicely and there are no i'm medi
ate fears that any of them will die. w.
j. Mann's condition is not considered criti-
cal. He is doing well. Special effort is be-
ing made to-day to find the bodies known
to be in the ruins of the Richmond hotel.
An extra force of men is at work in the 10
foot alley way between the rear of the
stores of Peter Paul and Ulbrich and
Kingsley and St. James hall where it is
thought at least two bodies are buried in
the debris. At 1920 this forenoon pair
of trousers were found ON the Eagle street
side of the hotel. In one of the pockets
was Powers hotel check bearing the
name of John McGrue.
The remains of one of the trunks of
iewelry belonging to p. f. Robinson, a
New York drummer, were found in the
ruins in the Boston clothing house cellar
this morning directly beneath Robinson
room in the hotel. The jewelry, consist
ing of gold and silver Jhimbles, rings
bracelets, watches, chains, etc., was bpdly
discolored and burned. 1t is thought the
other trunk will be found soon, but it is
feared that it has been burned and the
jewelry ruined except for melting over.
